Vodia Now Integrates with Microsoft Teams Presence

Published on:

August 25, 2025

Vodia PBX now supports Microsoft Teams Presence, building on its Teams Direct Routing certification and Dynamics 365 integration. Using Graph API from version 69.5.13, a user’s Vodia extension is automatically set to Do Not Disturb when they are on a Teams call. Presence status such as Available, Away, Busy, In a Meeting, or Presenting is matched via the Teams user’s principal username or email, allowing VoIP phones and web portals to show real-time status across devices. This integration connects Teams with a full-featured SIP-compliant PBX, enabling organizations to unify communications, streamline workflows, and support both cloud and on-premise telephony solutions.

In 2024, we announced the Vodia PBX has been awarded Microsoft Teams Direct Routing certification for our Session Border Controller (SBC). This certification enables Teams clients to serve as communication endpoints, combining the immense feature set of our industry-standard phone system with a seamless connection to public telephone networks (PSTN). Teams doesn’t support analog devices, and it doesn’t support some VoIP phones, so the integration of our SBC with Teams enables the connection of these devices with the Vodia PBX. 

Following our Teams certification and the recent announcement of our integration with Microsoft Dynamics 365, we are pleased to announce the integration of the Vodia phone system with Microsoft Teams Presence, the next step in our ongoing support for Microsoft platforms. 

Microsoft Teams Presence

Within Teams and throughout Microsoft 365, Presence is a core component of each user’s profile. Presence indicates the current availability of the user and indicates the user’s status to other Teams users, enabling all users to see each other’s status in “nearly” real time. User status is based on activity, which is available to other Teams users and on Outlook calendars: 

  • Available
  • Away
  • Be right back
  • Busy
  • Do not disturb
  • In a call
  • In a meeting
  • Offline
  • Presenting

The Vodia Integration with Microsoft Teams Presence

Vodia now supports integration with Microsoft Teams presence using Graph API (from version 69.5.13). When a Teams user is on a call, the extension is automatically set to DND. The Teams user’s principal username or email address is used to match against the extension's email address - this allows VoIP phones (using BLF) or a web portal to monitor the status of Teams extensions, as they will show as DND (the extension email address must match the principal username in Microsoft Teams/Office 365).

Keycloak, a Cloud Native Computing Foundation project, supports standard protocols including OpenID Connect, OAuth 2.0, and SAML, offering enterprise-grade identity and access management.

Why Fax Still Matters in 2025 and How Vodia Makes It Easy

Although many consider fax outdated, it continues to play a crucial role in sectors where compliance, confidentiality, and legal proof of delivery are non-negotiable. Healthcare providers rely on fax to meet HIPAA requirements, while industries such as finance, law, and real estate depend on it for contracts and documents that require signatures or legally verifiable transmission. Unlike email, fax offers confirmation reports that serve as proof of receipt, along with time-stamped records that hold up in legal proceedings. With Vodia’s PBX, digital fax becomes faster, easier, and more accessible than ever before, enabling users to drag and drop documents, monitor transmission progress, and receive immediate confirmations.
